I made a killing today, I finally made it out to that maternity and baby consignment store today. I got four shirts, a pair of jean capris, a pair of work pants and a U of M onsie all for $45. I think that's awesome, especially considering the pair of work pants I got from Target was $35 just for that. I'm so excited that I finally have some better clothes to wear for work. I should get one more pair of work pants, then with casual Friday that means I only have to repeat one pair per week.
I was shocked at how many shirts didn't fit though, I took a ton in with me to the dressing room. Though since they were used, I am thinking some of them were shrunk from wearing and washing since some of them did fit, but they barely covered my tummy now, let along in a few more months.
The onsie I got was so cute, it's a 3 mo U of M one...it was only $5, I couldn't pass it up. As soon as I got home I hung it in the baby's closet. My best friend gave me a bunch of kids hangers that she didn't need so those came in handy. She also has a huge bin of clothes she wants me to look through. Even if I end up having a girl, I am sure most of her boys clothes will work. A pair of fleece pants and a striped shirt will work for either. I'm so lucky we have so many friends and family willing to give us stuff.
Despite trying a lot the other night, I couldn't find the heartbeat on the doppler. I told myself before I bought it that I wouldn't freak out if I couldn't find it sometimes since I know the baby moves and can make it hard to hear, but I have to say it did bother me a little, though no major freak out. So I did find it Thursday, but the baby must have been going crazy because I could never hear it for more than a couple seconds without some other loud noise interrupting it. So I listened again last night....I found it within 5 seconds and it was so LOUD. I was able to listen to it for a good 5 minutes...well I could have gone longer but I wanted to go to bed. It was music to my ears, it was so steady and strong and loud. I wonder if maybe the baby was sleeping, because that is a but unusual to be able to listen for so long without it moving. It was like 1am, but of course the baby doesn't know that. I can't wait to record the heartbeat with the teddy bear we bought.
